CMQ Challenge Due: Aug Meeting 2024
This challenge is to create a quilt project that is inspired by a specific
song. (A song with words, not just music)
The quilted project can be anything you want. If it is smaller than a lap size
quilt, it should be finished. And, it should be something that you’ve
finished in 2024.
The quilted project can be a literal interpretation of the song, an abstract
interpretation of the song, or simply an artistic expression of how the song
makes you feel.
Literal interpretation:
Using exact words from the song, or using objects that are referenced in
the song. For example, for the song Three Little Birds you could have 3
small birds on your project. Or for the song “New York, New York” you
could have iconic NYC landmarks represented on your project.
Abstract interpretation:
An abstract interpretation of a song would not attempt to represent an
accurate depiction of the lyrics but instead use shapes, colors, forms, and
gestural marks to represent what the song is about. An example would be
a country landscape quilt to represent “Take Me Home Country Roads”, or
a quilt made of bright yellows to express “You Are The Sunshine Of My
Life”.
Personal artistic expression:
Create a quilted project that showcases how the song makes you feel, or
what the song means to you.
